Working for Easyjet appears to be like being in an abusive relationship. Everybody outside the company can see how bad it is, but their pilots are brainwashed into the 'orange' culture, thinking it's the best job in the world and that they cannot do better. Very few people leave the company, despite the fact that near enough every pilot I know in the company does nothing but complain about it, about the long 4-sector days, the delays, discretion, roster changes, minimum rest, below inflation pay increases, not allowed to swap days off, next to zero overtime opportunities.
Working for another company, I've been flying for over four years and have never even been asked to go into discretion, nor have any of my acquaintances at other companies, including Ryanair. It's only those at easyJet that seem to have this issue.
I'm sure there will be plenty of easyJet pilots ready to defend the company, which will more or less prove my point.
